Basically the title/summary cover it. I have a 40gb external firewire hard drive connected to my laptop. I have the hard drive divided into (1) 10gb and (1) 30gb partitions.
The 10gb is completely empty.
The 30gb is half used.
I am attempting to copy an 8gb file to the device. Windows reports "Cannot copy: There is not enough free disk space" error when I attempt to copy or move the file.
My laptop is down to 4gb free which is why I am attempting to offload some files. But this is ridiculous.
I just created a new text file, named it, opened it and added some sample text to it, saved it, and that all worked just fine. I guess my next step is to find a 1gb file and see if that copies, then 500mb if not or 2gb if it does, etc.
Thanks for any ideas! I've used this device without issues until now...
